Contemporary Chinese vegetarian cuisine

Description

Contemporary Chinese Vegetarian Cuisine contains 60 quick and easy recipes for today’s busy yet healthy lifestyle. Unlike many traditional Chinese vegetarian dishes which use highly processed wheat gluten to replace meats, the emphasis here is on natural ingredients such as mushrooms and bean curd, with fresh vegetables. Written in a step-by-step format with additional tips on the side, the tasty yet healthy dishes range from hearty soups, to steamed dishes and quick stir-fries and are a delight to create. This cookbook includes recipes for preparing a full course vegetarian meal which may tease your taste buds with a spicy and tangy hot and sour soup, let you savour the savoury crispness of bean curd rolls with mushrooms, and delight in a refreshing dessert of sweet-scented lychees. Measurements are given in Metric, Imperial and American units for further convenience, and a fully illustrated glossary of ingredients provides practical information about popular ingredients found in Chinese vegetarian dishes
